VideoSkip

Skips/mutes/blanks selected parts of streaming videos

VideoSkip is a powerful Chrome extension designed to help users filter out unwanted or objectionable content from streaming videos. Utilizing the same content categories found in IMDB.com's Parents Guide, VideoSkip allows you to skip, mute, or blank selected sections of videos based on your preferred sensitivity level. This extension does not modify the video files themselves but selectively plays content to protect advertising and copyrights.

Users can easily load .skp skip files from a growing community exchange to tailor their viewing experience, sync skip files with streaming services, and adjust filtering intensity for children, teens, or adults. VideoSkip also provides a standalone web application for use with locally saved videos on computers and mobile devices. With its customizable filtering and legal compliance, VideoSkip offers a user-friendly solution for safer streaming viewing experiences.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

VideoSkip does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
    Risk likelihood
    Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

    VideoSkip is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
